    Question What Did You Lot Get Up To This Weekend, (Shooting-wise)?

    I spent Sunday afternoon hunting - to clarify, I mooched about the farm, 99s in hand, for a couple of hours or so without a single opportunity presenting itself. Returned to base and swapped said 99s for the Williams+TruGlo-equipped 30s for a fun plinking session until rain stopped play.

    Silhouette comp on saturday, it was so cold that the target disappeared in cloud of vapor after each shot and I was shaking from cold so it didn't go that well. However, afterwards I got to do some bullet testing with .224 BSA and managed to find a good MOA bullet size. I also got to shoot a 20mm 3000 fpe Fury, that thing has RECOIL with 170 gram bullets.

    No shooting but a little rationalising with my rifles.
    Sold a Steyr H5 and a Ripley
    Bought a single shot ultra se and a HW30
    i did watch the buyer of my h5 put around 100 shots through it into 2 groups before we talked money. He was beaming ear to ear

    I spend Sunday afternoon on Stickledown at the 900 yd point, trying to hit the target in blustery, variable wind, sun, and rain, with my short barreled (18'') Mossberg MVP LC .308

    It didn't go well....
